Attraction Information

Once home to London’s most notorious villains, The Clink Prison Museum celebrates England’s oldest prison. Enter if you dare!

The museum is housed on the original prison site which survived over 600 years, dating back to 1144. Turn back time with a guided tour filled with tales, as well as a hands-on introduction to archaeological artefacts - including medieval torture devices. No one get any ideas!

Some say the moniker, ‘The Clink’, came from the sound of the blacksmith closing the irons on prisoners’ wrists. Now if that wasn’t spooky enough, this Southwark relic is famous for paranormal activity. Nightly vigils are held allowing visitors to make contact with the long gone residents, using ouija boards and glass divination. You can even team up with the UK’s biggest ghost hunting company to search for spooks; just don’t forget to prove you braved the hunt with a free downloadable photo. Sadly this site isn’t wheelchair accessible.
